ment building now in the United states.
The removal of the present structure will
begin early in 49, and the new palace
of Pleasure" will be pushed rapidly to
completion.
The company owning the garden have
accepted the design Of Messrs McKim.
Mead g. White, of New York, for the new
building, and we are therefore enabled to
give fair representation Of what it will
be when ompleted-especially of the
wonderful tower of observation. The idea
was to combine eleven different places of
amusement and resort under one roof,
mutually accessible and all of assured
safety The amphitheatre is to seat 5000
people, the theatre 1000, the concert hall
/ 900, and the summer garden 800, while
the ball room, supper room, restaurant,
shops, stables, studio and belvedere are all
to be ample. The theatre is also to have
stage 4OX40 feet; the concert hall is COX
100 feet, with stage 2Sx40; the summer
garden on the roof covers 1000 square
feet, and the rooms for Giving purposes, ~
so to speak, are in like grand proportions.
Now, to the rural reader, the word
garden" conveys the idea of an open
Enclosure, in which flowers, fruit trees
were, and take their chances with the sun
light rain and bugs. To city man it
may mean something very ditferent-a
rooted Enclosure, where the shrubs stand
in boxes and where the garden" part
consists only in range and more freedom
than in II parlor or public hall. In the
new building, however, there will be II
real bona tide garden on top; while from
the summit Of the tower almost every day
you can see the gardens of New Jersey
and Long Island.
The architects were told at the start
that whatever feature was Sighted, abso-
lutte safety to patrons must be secured To
this end the entire structure IS to be of
iron, brick, terra Gotta and stone. Even
the chairs Of the amphitheatre and the
stage curtain of the theatre are to be Of
iron; the stables are to be of brick and
iron, and all the halls and stairways are
to be so ample and well arranged that the
audience can depart in few minutes
without danger. The structure will he

the queen of song in Europe. Her
voice is in the very maturity of power
for purity, range and fleXibility, and she
is also delightful actress. While
her life has not had the sadness OF Mali
bran's, or the piquancy of Sophie Ar
nould's or Catarini Gabrielli's, yet she has
had "episodes,n and now prefers to be
called Nine. Patti-Nicolini. Her mar
rage with the Marquis De Caux was nat
urally an unhappy one, for Patti is more
an American than European, and the
marquis showed in the most brazen Of
ways that he was a husband 'for revenue
only" But as gossip is out OF place, let

Jenny Lind especially so. There is but
one voice as to Otto Goldschmidt and
Jenny-that they were eminently fitted
for each other, and have lived together III

terror of Massachusetts when she heard Of
it, and wrote the mild eyed German that
if he would wait in Boston she would 90

did-very quietly. They wanted to avoid
publicity. You know she set
tied in London and has lived very quietly.
The last time she appeared in public was
for some charitable purpose about seven
years ago. Her voice was still tolerably
well preserved but the old magic had

Madison square is by location and sur
roundings, by fashionable custom and
common consent, the great social center
for outdoor New York. The long angles
formed by the intersection Of Broadway
and Fifth avenue, the abundant space and
the elegant hotels and residences clustered
about it, make it the great promenade for
those who would see New York at leisure
And yet the institution called Madison
Square garden is very unsightly collec-
ton of sheds and patchwork. 1t is a
noted place, too, and has been by turns
circus, menagerie, dancing hall, cattle
fair, political wigwam and general place
of resort 1t was originally freight
depot, and has been remodeled in vari-
ETY. Of ways, to suit dog shows, cat
shows, baby shows and beautiful women
shows, military balls, Philharmonic and
Arion society balls, walking matches and
athletics, bicycle matches and hundreds
Of other popular entertainments. Yet all
the shows there have maintained a sort Of
''tone," the management has been good,
and so the good will of the place is valu-
able. Unsightly as the old structure is,
1t is dear to New Workers; and they only
rejoice in its destruction because there is
to be erected in its place magnificent
